The Internet and Education
1.
2. The internet, also simply called
the NET, is the largest and far-
flung networks system –of-all-
system.
3. It is not really a network but a
loosely organized collection of about
25,000 networks accessed by
computers in the planet.
4. has no central
headquarters
no centrally offered
services
no comprehensive
online index to tell users
what information is
available in the system.
No one owns the
internet.
6. This is done through
a standardized
protocol (or set of
rules for
exchanging data)
called Transmission
Control
Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP).
7. To gain access to
the Internet, the
computer must be
equipped with
what is called a
Server which has
special software
(program) that
uses the Internet
protocol.
8. The Internet connect
not only commercial, industrial,
scientific establishments but all
other sectors including education
andits libraries, campuses, and
computer centers.
10. The vast sea of
information
now in the
Internet,
including news
and trivia, is an
overwhelming
challenge to
those who wish
to navigate it.
11. Every day, the Net user-
population and the
available information
continue to grow, and
new ways are
continuously being
developed to tour the
Internet.
13. Using a program called a browser, the user can
use a mouse to point and click on screen icons
to surf the Internet, particularly the World
Wide Web (the Web), an Internet’s subset of
text, images, and sounds are linked together to
allow users to access data or information
needed.
14. The future of the
Internet seems
limitless. Already
its complexity has
spawned and
continue to spawn
Net sites including
new demand for
services to business,
industries, science,
government, and
even homes.
15. Many experts predict that the Internet is
destined to become the centerpiece of all
online communications on the planet and in
some future time in the solar system using
interplanetary satellite communication
stations.
18. There is now a wider choice from rote
arithmetic or grammar lessons to
discovery and innovation projects.
19. And today schools
are gearing up to take
advantage of Internet
access, where they can
plug into the Library of
Congress, make virtual
visits to famous museums
in the world, write to
celebrities, and even send
questions to heads of
states.
